Today the weather was so pretty
E A
At noon I went out for a stroll
A D
I walked and did some window shopping
E A
And met someone I used to know
D A
The years had been kind to her beauty
D B7 E
When I first saw her my heart jumped
A D
Tonight if I seem disenchanted
E A
I took a memory to lunch
We sat and talked about the old days
With misty teardrops in our eyes
And reconfirmed an old suspicion
The past grows old but never dies
The charm that draws two hearts together
By four o' clock was just too much
The days and years we had between us
Were down to just two coffee cups
Bb D#
You can't relive life in an hour
F Bb
The afternoon kept wearing on
Bb D#
I'm sorry that I'm late for dinner
F Bb
I took a memory to lunch
